Re: CFileDialog breaks on paths with slashes

Cheers!

I just stumbled across something I hadn't seen before. The code is pretty
simple:

 CFileDialog dlg( TRUE, // open existing
                  NULL, // default extension
                  L"C:/some.text" // initial file
                );
 int res = dlg.DoModal();

Now, the call to DoModal() immediately returns without popping up a dialog
and without emitting any error on the debug trace window, which was the
initial problem I noticed. Then, doing some experiments, I found that if I
set the third parameter to L"C:\\some.text" it actually works, IOW the
dialog breaks unless I supply a path with backslashes.

Notes:
- Using VC8
- Using _UNICODE
- Using MS Windows XP
- Haven't tried mixing slashes and backslashes

Have any of you stumbled across this behaviour, too?
